Hello everyone!!

I tried to install POV-Ray in my computer (SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12
64-bit), but I got the error as following:

g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..  -I.. -I../source/base -I../source/frontend
-I../unix    -pipe -Wno-multichar -O3 -msse -mfpmath=sse -msse2 -march=k8
-mtune=k8 -malign-double -minline-all-stringops  -c -o lighting.o `test -f
'lighting.cpp' || echo './'`lighting.cpp
Makefile:285: recipe for target 'lighting.o' failed


Could you help me know how to deal with that problem?

Do you really need and want to install 3.6 when 3.7 is available ?

Yes, I want to use a software which is based on the 3.6 version.

I'm afraid you are in for a bit of debugging, between the old code, your compiler and
the currently installed libraries.

You will also encounter a problem with the png library, as its API has changed (and
old code was not nice, using internal functions)

And I cannot help for lighting.o, as it compiles fine here (but png_pov.o is bad
enough by default, so no binary for me either)

Yes,yes,
I also have problem for png_pov.

But if I used version 3.7.
when I cd to /unix and try ./prebuild.sh
I just got :
requires automake 1.9 or above
:(((

But I already have automake1.11

It's been a while since I did a 3.6 compile, but last time on Ubuntu 
14.04 I ran configure with:

./configure COMPILED_BY="WFP" --disable-lib-checks

to use the packaged libraries in the 3.6 tarball. However, with the 
above configure stopped when a mktime test subprocess hung in a loop. I 
had to manually kill the mktime subprocess after which configure finished.

I could then do:

make clean
make

successfully.

You _definitely_ should contact the author of RaySAR for support, as the
POV-Ray coming with RaySAR is a patched version, and lighting.cpp is one
of the patched files.

One thing I've noticed about the modified files is that they have
DOS-style line endings (CR+LF) instead of Unix-style line endings (LF);
maybe those need to be converted.

Another thing I've noticed is that the patched lighting.cpp includes a
file called "povproto.h", which for some reason does not reside in
povray_linux_source/povray-3.6.tar, but in povray_linux_source itself.
Maybe the installation instructions fail to cover that file properly.


Just for fun, you might try compiling the unmodified POV-Ray 3.6.1
(ideally from an authoritative source, i.e. www.povray.org, rather than
the povray-3.6.tar included in RaySAR) to verify that the problems arise
from the modifications rather than a general incompatibility between
POV-Ray 3.6.1 and your build environment.

If you have automake 1.11, but get an error message saying you need
automake 1.9 or above, there's something fishy going on, and I'd like to
know more about it.

That said, it probably won't help with RaySAR anyway, as that program
seems to require a patched version of POV-Ray.
